When to choose it

Choose the Studio Pro 605 when your paper pattern needs allowance for lead came. The pattern shear removes a strip as you separate adjacent paper outlines. This changes the size of the templates you will transfer to glass so the design can account for the channel between pieces.

Studio Pro lists a separate 604 for copper foil. Match the joining system before choosing the shear, because the allowance in the paper affects the fit later. If your pattern pieces are supplied with their final allowance already applied, check the project instructions before making an additional cut.

Fit and buying advice

Use model 605 for the lead pattern role. Use a documented lead cutter for trimming the metal channel itself.

Questions about this product

What part of the project does the 605 cut?

It cuts paper pattern pieces. A lead nipper or knife trims the channel later in the project.

When should I buy model 604 instead?

Choose 604 when the pattern calls for the copper foil allowance.

Can I use the model number to distinguish the two?

Yes. Studio Pro lists 605 for lead and 604 for foil.
